Audio Honks with WinAmp/Firefox
When moving the mouse or scrolling a page within Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Word my audio honks (loud static) and the page and mouse momentarily locks up.
These are the applications that are open when this happens
* Firefox with multiple pages including CNN.com Live's video stream (sound on mute)
* WinAmp playing music from my hard drive
When these are open in addition to the above, the mouse locking up and honking noise happens in them too:
* Word
* Internet Explorer
Individually each of these applications works just fine.
I have plenty of RAM and plenty of processing power.
The system is behaving as if it is bumping up against some resource limit.
The CPU usage when this happens is about 15%
The memory is at about 30%.
System Description:
Windows 7 Home Premium
Dell Studio XPS 9000, Intel Core i7-920 processor (8MB L3 Cache 2.66GHz)
12GB DDR3 SDRAM at 1066MHz
Creative Soundblaster X-Fi Titanium
Aside from not having WinAmp playing while watching CNN.com Live, is there another solution?
Thanks,
Drew
